it shits all over the show writing-wise and is on par with the comics. I actually thought the second episode was written by Kirkman himself when I was playing through it. It really helps that you make all the choices, and there are some really tough ones, both split second choices and longer, more thought out decisions. You're gonna enjoy it when you play. My girlfriend doesn't even like games and she made me wait for her to play that's how much she enjoyed the story.

Yeah my wife wants me to get it and she generally despises video games. She also wants me to get that other Walking Dead game, the one where they are basically trying to make as much money off the popularity of Daryl Dixon's character as possible.
